, NBA: No. 1 forward
The Knicks did not make a big move on the trade deadline, but the players' current contract extensions have not made much progress.
There are two players whose contracts expire this season, one is Paul Millsap and the other is Gallinari.
Downey has approached these two before, and Millsap is fine. During the previous negotiations, he still wanted to renew his contract with the Knicks.
[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, Yeguo Reading, install the latest version. 】
However, after Gallinari got the championship ring, he wanted to start his career in another way.
For example: Go to a team that is not competing for the championship, get a big contract, and be the starter!
In the Knicks, with Lian Dao, it is basically impossible.
So Downey is most entangled with Gallinari.
You must know that Gallinari still has a lot of transaction value in the transaction at this time.
Gallinari was the team's sixth man in the Knicks last season, and his ability to stabilize output during the team's rotation transition is very good.
The key is that it is easy to use, and has experience in the playoffs and finals!
Some teams have long been eyeing the Knicks' fat.
As long as Gallinari is on the shelf, there will be an endless stream of teams wanting to get him.
If there is no trade, there is a high probability that Gallinari will be released this summer.
Moreover, it is also difficult for the Knicks to match Gallinari's contract.
Because this season is over, Downey will have to consider contract extensions for Lian Dao and Holiday.
So, so far, Downey is still a little hesitant.
After much deliberation, he finally made a phone call from Lian Dao.
After all, Lian Dao is the star of the Knicks. It can be said that there are some important transactions. Without Lian Dao's nod, even Downey would not dare to operate easily.
In fact, this is the status quo of most super teams, and the manager and head coach don't have much say.
However, the Knicks are actually pretty good by comparison.
Lian Dao is basically the draft and suggestions for reinforcements. He never forced Gong to say that he wanted to cooperate with that star.
Moreover, sometimes, Lian Dao will deliberately grasp the scale between him and the management.
So, so far, Lian Dao and Downey hadn't been at war with each other.
“Sickle, there is a new Chinese restaurant near 6th Avenue!”
"I heard that the taste is very authentic, how about we have a meal together?"
…
A Wei Mi Chinese restaurant at the intersection of Sixth Avenue and 32nd Street is crowded with people.
"Weimi, this name is really interesting."
Lian Dao smiled, but didn't pay much attention.
He didn't notice it before, but there was a new Chinese restaurant here.
In New York, the base of Chinese is very large, except for the Chinatown at the southern end of Manhattan.
You will also often see some Chinese restaurants in other places.
Especially after Lian Dao came to New York and led the rise of the Knicks, he also brought some Chinese restaurants into flames.
As soon as he entered the entrance of the restaurant, Lian Dao was shocked to see the scene that dropped his jaw.
There was a bronze statue of Lian Dao at the door, and Lian Dao's signature.
Lian Dao searched all the memories in his brain, but he didn't remember that he had endorsed this restaurant.

Entering the hall, Lian Dao saw the Wall of Fame and immediately understood.
Because the top photo is of Lian Dao and Yun Ying.
Yun Ying was the head chef of the Chinese restaurant that the little senior sister had poached from China at that time.
I have been a private chef at home a few times before!
No wonder, I haven't seen Yun Ying come to cook at home recently, so the restaurant has opened.
…
The little senior sister kept talking about opening a Chinese restaurant before, and Lian Dao also agreed at that time, but she never asked in detail.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, all the Chinese restaurants have opened.
Lian Dao had an extra Chinese restaurant for no reason, without knowing it.
At this time, Lian Dao suddenly realized that the name of the Chinese restaurant was very interesting to him.
Weimi chose a word "Wei" from Guo Yuwei, and "mi" chose the nickname "Xiaoli" for Lian Dao by the little senior sister!
The arrival of Lian Dao immediately caused a commotion, but Lian Dao quickly calmed the excitement of the customers and asked them to eat quietly.
However, the commotion caused by the restaurant still alarmed the head chef, Yunying.
After the two chatted, Lian Dao realized that this store was also a subsidiary of Hantang Ventures.
However, with the blessing of Lian Dao's celebrity effect, the restaurant's business is not going well.
Especially the bronze statue of Lian Dao at the entrance, which is better than a lucky cat.
This is because the little sister didn't tell me, otherwise if I knew it earlier, I would definitely invite the guys from the team to have dinner here.
This is all free advertising, no need for nothing!
In the box of the restaurant, Donny Walsh and Lian Dao sat and ate.
Donnie Walsh sat down and talked about the excellent investment vision of Kwaram Rice. He said that the restaurant's environment and atmosphere, the authentic food, and the restaurant's promising prospects.
Anyway, let's flatter Lian Dao first.
Following the trend, Donny Walsh also chatted with Lian Dao about the team's prospects.
Although he didn't tell Lian Dao clearly, Lian Dao could basically hear what Donny Walsh meant.
Moreover, none of Downey's several trading plans was particularly reliable.
Many teams know that Gallinari's contract expires next season.
But the Knicks have Gallinari's priority to renew the contract, so the price offered by other teams is not bad.
It's a pity that none of them are what the Knicks need most at present!
"Donnie, we shouldn't think too far, we should base ourselves on the present!"
"We can't predict the future, but we can grasp it now."
"We should focus on what we should do this season because now it's what matters!"
Lian Dao gave his opinion.
Although Donnie Walsh didn't make it very clear, the information that Lian Dao knew might not be as comprehensive as that of Donnie Walsh.
However, as the leader of the team, Lian Dao still understands the thoughts of the players.
Based on the basis, which players did not renew their contracts, Lian Dao understood after thinking about it.
In addition, Donny Walsh asked him to have dinner, plus various hints, most of them still haven't made up their minds.
The reason why Lian Dao said that has a lot to do with his current thoughts.
Lian Dao wants to defend the title, which can be seen from the goals at the beginning of the season.

Including after that, some of Lian Dao's actions were also aimed at the goal of defending the title.
Moreover, with the current state of the Knicks, the possibility of defending the title is also increasing.
However, once the transaction will generate a lot of uncertainty, no matter who comes to the transaction, it will take time to adjust.
Whether they can run in well depends on the production of chemical reactions.
Whether D'Antoni's tactics are suitable is another aspect.
The most important thing is that they have no running-in time.
From mid-March to the end of April, less than one and a half months before the end of the regular season, and then the playoffs.
The time is too short, and once the transaction is made, there are too many uncertain factors.
So maintaining the status quo is the best option at present.
This is why some championship teams, if they want to defend their title, rarely make a big move against the team lineup.
As for next season, there is still time to think about it during the off-season~www.innread.com~Donnie, there is a saying in China that goes, "There must be a way before the car arrives", and there will naturally be a solution at that time. "
Lian Dao continued.
Donnie Walsh nodded with a final smile.
In fact, Lian Dao's theses are actually based on his own point of view.
If the team's performance is indeed mediocre this season, he will also feel that trading is the way out.
But they obviously have the strength to defend the title. As long as the lineup is kept intact this season, they are basically very likely.
…
At the end of the trade deadline, the league once again returned to calm.
Some teams can only be recalled from the Development League even if their players are injured and cannot make a big roster.
The Knicks' game in March is still going on. 𝐟𝓇𝒆𝐞w𝐞𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝐞𝒍. c𝐨𝒎
The Knicks really played the defending champion's momentum in the second half of the March schedule.
First, they easily beat the completely rebuilt Trail Blazers at home.
Then, in two consecutive matches, they defeated the Pacers at home and away, the second of which was a back-to-back away game.
Of course, it's back-to-back for both parties.
Back-to-back victories against the Toronto Raptors and Philadelphia 76ers followed.
The strength of the opponents in these few games is not very strong, except for a little effort against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Because of back-to-back, the Knicks did not feel good, so the whole team strengthened their defense, and the two sides fell into a defensive battle.
The score between the two sides was anxious for a while, but in the end the Knicks still relied on their overall strength to be better and won the final victory.
On March 23, the Knicks played away against the Toronto Raptors.
This is the last game between the Knicks and the Raptors this season.
